2. Web Site Use
Information
Similar to other commercial Web sites, my Web site
utilizes a standard technology called "cookies" (see
explanation below, "What Are Cookies?") and web server log
files to collect information about how my Web site is
used. Information gathered through cookies and Web server logs
may include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed, time
spent at the Web site, and the Web sites visited just
before and just after my Web site.
How Do I Use the Information That You
Provide to Me?
Broadly speaking, I
use personal information for purposes of administering my
business activities, providing the products and services you
requested, to process your payment and to
monitor the use of the
service, my
marketing and promotional efforts
and
improve my
content and service offerings, and customize the
site's content, layout, services and for other
lawful purposes. These uses
improve the site and better tailor it to meet your

Furthermore, such information may be shared with others on an
aggregate basis. Personally identifiable information or

Website, new services, and special offers I think you will

wish to receive these offers by emailing me using the
link provided in the emails I send.
What Are
Cookies?
A cookie is a very small text
document, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier.
When you visit a Web site, that site's computer asks your
computer for permission to store this file in a part of your
hard drive specifically designated for cookies. Each Web site
can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser's
preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your
browser only permits a Web site to access the cookies it has
already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other
sites. Browsers are usually set to accept cookies. However, if
you would prefer not to receive cookies, you may alter the
configuration of your browser to refuse cookies. If you choose
to have your browser refuse cookies, it is possible that some
areas of my site will not function as effectively when
viewed by the users.
A
cookie cannot retrieve any other data from your hard
drive or pass on computer
viruses.
How Do I Use Information I
Collect from Cookies?
As you visit and browse the
Web site, the site uses cookies to differentiate you from other
users. In some cases, I also use cookies to prevent you
from having to log in more than is necessary for security.
Cookies, in conjunction with my Web server's log files,
allow us to calculate the aggregate number of people
visiting the Web site and which parts of the site are most
popular. This helps me gather feedback to constantly
improve the Web site and better serve my visitors.
Cookies do not allow me to gather any personal information
about you and I do not intentionally store any personal
information that your browser provided to me in your
cookies.
IP
Addresses
IP addresses are used by your
computer every time you are connected to the Internet. Your IP
address is a number that is used by computers on the network to
identify your computer. IP addresses are automatically
collected by my web server as part of demographic and
profile data known as traffic data so that data (such as the
Web pages you request) can be sent to you.
Sharing and Selling
Information
I do not share, sell, lend or
lease any of the information that uniquely identify a
subscriber (such as email addresses or personal details)
with anyone except to the extent it is necessary to
process transactions or provide services that you have
requested.
What About Legally
Compelled Disclosure of
Information?
I may disclose information when legally compelled to do
so, in other words, when I, in good faith, believe that the law
requires it or for the protection of my legal
rights. Imay also disclose account
information when I have reason to believe that disclosing
this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring
legal action against someone who may be violating any of
my Terms of Service or to protect the safety of other
site users and the Public.
What About Other Web Sites Linked to Our
Web Site?
I am not responsible for
the practices employed by Web sites linked to or from my
Web site or the information or content contained therein. Often
links to other Web sites are provided solely as pointers to
information on topics that may be useful to the users
of my Web site.
Please remember that when you use a link to go from this
Website to another web site, my Privacy Policy is no
longer in effect. Your browsing and interaction on any other
web site, including web sites, which have a link on my
Website, is subject to that Web site's own rules and policies.
Please read over those rules and policies before
proceeding.

without notice. Choice/Opt-In/Opt-Out
This site allows visitors to unsubscribe so that they will not
receive future messages. After unsubscribing I will
discontinue sending the particular messages as soon as
technically feasible.
Surveys
From time-to-time this site may request information from
users via surveys. Participation in these surveys is completely
voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to
disclose this information. Information requested may include
contact information (such as name and address), and demographic
information (such as zip code, age level). Contact information
will be used to send any responses or information as
appropriate. Survey information will be used for purposes of
monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this

to use my services unsupervised
and I ask that children (under the age of

assets) is acquired, your information would be considered part
of those assets, and may be part of those assets that are
transferred.

I may change this Privacy Policy from time to time.
If/when changes are made to this privacy policy, I will
email users who have given us permission to do so. I will
post any changes here, so be sure to check back periodically.
